Oh man! A company gave money to a political campaign?
Have you ever checked how much the Portland Cement Association and similar groups gives to pro-highway referenda and politicians. I'm sure you'd be outraged about that too!

The thing is we actually need and use highways. And that the money used to pay for highways comes from people who will be using them.
The choo-choo fanatics instead take money from people who will never use them in order to run nearly empty trains.

Oh man! A company gave money to a political campaign? Not only a political campaign but to a bond referendum for which they were the contracted beneficiaries. In effect, they bought themselves a contract extension.

Oh man! A company gave money to a political campaign?Heaven forbid that the most qualified contractors ever support issues that affect them.
Heck, if GOPcapitalist wants to ban "corporate free speech", we can start by restricting what corrupt global companies like WalMart, Ford, GM, Archer-Daniels, PepsiCo, oil companies and financial institutions, etc, etc. donate to the Cato Institute.
Gag 'em all. Stop the corrupt corporate propaganda once and for all!!!
Good "find", GOPcapitalist!
We gotta root out this corruption whereever it rears its ugly head.
Thank goodness you're so vigilant. </sarcasm>
